2. Here you go - i beleive "being dismissed" means fired

Internal Department of Homeland Security (DHS) data from late 2025 indicated that over 200 new Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) recruits were dismissed during training, with some failing drug tests, lacking required qualifications, or having disqualifying criminal backgrounds. These dismissals were attributed to an accelerated hiring surge aimed at increasing the number of agents to meet mass deportation goals, which led to a breakdown in standard vetting procedures.
Key Findings on Recruits and Vetting Failures
Failed Vetting/Drug Tests: Recruits were sent to training at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) in Georgia before their background checks, fingerprinting, or drug tests were completed.
Criminal Backgrounds: Some recruits were found to have disqualifying criminal records, including incidents of violent crime like "strong-arm robbery and battery stemming from a domestic violence incident".
Unqualified/Low Standards: A majority of the dismissed recruits failed to meet basic physical or academic standards, with reports indicating nearly half failed written exams even with open-book access.
AI Screening Errors: An AI tool used to process over 150,000 applications was found to have improperly fast-tracked individuals by misidentifying job titles like "compliance officer" as law enforcement experience.
Reasons for the Hiring Issues
Expedited Hiring Surge: The agency, under pressure to add 10,000 new officers by the end of 2025, significantly shortened training (from 13 weeks to six) and rushed the onboarding process.
Overwhelmed HR: The HR office was overwhelmed by the high volume of applicants driven by $50,000 signing bonuses.
Concerns Over "Slipping Through": Current and former DHS officials expressed concern that while some were caught, other unqualified recruits might have "slipped through the cracks" because they did not admit to missing pre-screening steps.
These issues led to, in some cases, recruits being sent to field offices before it was discovered they had not passed their initial screening, according to reports from October 2025.

4. I wonder if this is what she's referring to... Thank you for you looking and finding this.

These were recruits dismissed during training, so we could argue they weren't actually ICE agents yet (due to shoddy screening and hiring practices)... But then again she calls them ICE people rather than agents, so maybe they're who she's talking about. Hmm... definitely unclear!

Meanwhile there's another reply I want look at and checkout.
Thank you again for your search and reply.

3. I think she meant the purge in 2025

Pedo Trump purged ICE local field offices and leadership positions of people with brains and morals.

"Trump administration quietly purges ICE leaders in five cities"

5. Yes, the purge was pretty quiet!

"ICE leaders in Denver, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Phoenix, and San Diego were relieved of their jobs and moved to other posts within the federal agency last Friday, the Washington Examiner has learned.

Over the weekend, the Department of Homeland Security quietly started overhauling how it carries out its mass deportation operation in hopes of netting more arrests and ratcheting up its flashy, high-profile deportation campaign. The five cities are believed to be the first of more to come across ICE’s 24 field offices nationwide, according to three officials.

One official with firsthand knowledge of the plans, who asked to speak on the condition of anonymity, said the plan goes far beyond the five cities.

“It’s a lot more,” the official said.

A total of five sources said the five field office directors had been relieved of their duties and sent to other parts of the country to work. The DHS had plotted to fire all five field office directors but relented amid pushback from acting ICE Director Todd Lyons, who pleaded that they not be terminated.

"The administration wanted all these guys fired and Todd stepped in and said, ‘Let’s move them all to headquarters,'” the second official said. Lyons did not respond to a request for comment.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem would have the final say in personnel matters at ICE and Border Patrol. The DHS did not comment on Noem’s role in the personnel changes."

While these first five leaders weren't fired, being reassigned instead to others offices (thanks to Todd Lyons), It sounds as though there were other firings for lower level employees. With the "purge plan" spreading to other cities it remains to be seen how many will be fired.

Unfortunately we have no numbers at this point.

Thank you very much for finding this article and posting!
